More foulmouthed hijinks by America's favorite White Trash Jewish American Princess!

Though, a fault thus far noticed: Chelsea's essay on her campaign for getting the Cabbage Patch Kid which will set her apart on the playground ends with a photograph of Young Miss Handler holding aforementioned Cabbage Patch Doll -a sort of trophy shot.

But, throughout the essay, she describes the Doll of her Dreams as being brunette. The one in the photograph is blonde. Which is it, Chelsea? Which. Is. It?

I also LOVED that there were pictures involved throughout the book...it made the story lines much more believable and gave a great visual to go with her short stories.

CHELSEA CHELSEA BANG BANG is a book that was loaned to me by a coworker. Having just finished my last book, I had yet to pick up a new one. So I started reading. It is not a book I would typically pick out for myself but it was really entertaining!

So thank you, Chelsea Lately, for motivating all writing enthusiasts out there, whether intentional or not.

This was quite a drop in quality after Are You There, Vodka? Chelsea Lately's new book starts out, well, weird, with a 30-page discussion of an eight-year-old Chelsea Lately's first year of masturbatory discovery. Yeah, there is an ick-factor. If you want to tell us about how you rub your adult vagina, Chelsea Lately, be my guest. But maybe we should leave memories of your eight-year-old vagina where it belongs...40 years in the past.

By the end of this book everything degenerates into notes on a few not particularly interesting pranks and vacations -- maybe she was too busy with TV show prep to bother to give her readers anything meaty, who can say. BUT UNLIKE YOUR BRAIN-DEAD L.A. TV AUDIENCE, THERE IS NO FUCKING 'APPLAUSE' LIGHT THAT GOES ON WITH A BOOK, CHELSEA LATELY, AND WE DON'T SALIVATE AND APPLAUDE ON CUE.

Readers will appreciate the prank in which someone tells someone else that a dog died...but...wait for it...it was really still alive! We also especially like how she hung out with a real black person, and even let that black person drive her around in a car...because the black guy was her limo driver. Driving Miss Daisy ain't got noting on you, Chelsea Lately, no suh.

Chelsea Lately, honey, we get it; you are rich, you get to sleep with the CEO of a network, and you want us to believe that you should have been appreciated much earlier in life for your obvious talent, which seems to be verifiable now because you have a show on basic cable late-night TV...sorta like Sealab 2020 or Squidbillies. We really are sorry that you are so unhappy with your upper middle class upbringing, that you did not get the right Cabbage Patch Doll as a child, and that you spent your twenties in a drugged-out stupor while doing what I am sure was a darn fine job in your multiple McJobs. But look at the bright side: You get to spend your 50s telling us about all of the amazing new adventures you are currently undergoing as your body rapidly slides into old age, how you wasted opportunities to write good books and eventually fell into obscurity, and how your years of alcohol and drug abuse took their toll. In the future, you will have plenty to write about!(less)

EDITORIAL REVIEW: ***WHAT . . . A RIOT! *** Life doesn't get more hilarious than when Chelsea Handler takes aim with her irreverent wit. Who else would send all-staff emails to smoke out the dumbest people on her show? Now, in this new collection of original essays, the #1 bestselling author of *Are You There, Vodka? It's Me, Chelsea* delivers one laugh-out-loud moment after another as she sets her sights on the ridiculous side of childhood, adulthood, and daughterhood. Family moments are fair game, whether it's writing a report on Reaganomics to earn a Cabbage Patch doll, or teaching her father social graces by ordering him to stay indoors. It's open season on her love life, from playing a prank on her boyfriend (using a ravioli, a fake autopsy, and the Santa Monica pier) to adopting a dog so she can snuggle with someone who doesn't talk. And everyone better duck for cover when her beach vacation turns into matchmaking gone wild. Outrageously funny and deliciously wicked, CHELSEA CHELSEA BANG BANG is good good good good!

It jumps wildly from childhood memories to relationship stories to drunken ramblings with little to no connection form one to the next.

Starting with the gross cover of lifting up her skirt to a DOG, this book was crass and lame.
Chelsea Handler was trying too damn hard.

The first chapter was....crude, stupid, awkward and nauseating. I tried to find the humour in an 8-year-old girl who discovered her vagina and her masturbating adventures but all I thought was how stupid and unfunny it was. The second chapter didn't get a giggle out of me, either, and I saw no point in trying to read any more.

I also found it strange that an 8-ye...more

1. The masturbation chapter that opens the book. An ENTIRE chapter, about EIGHT year old Chelsea and friends masturbating at slumber parties. Really?? I have an eight year old. And I was an eight year old once. Maybe in junior high, but SECOND GRADERS?? I don't think so. And it just went on and on and on. I kept reading, though, because I thought to myself, can it really be this bad? Surely this is all a joke? And yet, the rest of the book is pretty much all bizarrely true stories, so make what you want of the first chapter.

2. All the constant references to her older boyfriend who owns the E! network. Which produces the show she stars in. We get it, Chelsea. You're famous because you sleep with someone powerful.

3. How rude and derogatory she is to her friends, including the aforementioned older BF who owns E!

4. Especially the friends of size.

5. How horrible she is to her family, and how they must feel reading these books. The story of her and her brother doing mushrooms and how he swam naked in a lake (God, who makes this cr*p up? Oh right, the younger not-funny GF of the guy who owns the E! network).

6. Racism. See the lengthy chapter on the black "friends" who can't swim.

7. The mean tricks she plays on her BF. Even if he is older, and owns the E! network, he's your boss and your BF. She tells this lengthy - LENGTHY - tale of how she tricked him into thinking they killed a dog, and staging the dog's funeral. Apparently, she even went on one of the late night talk show's to discuss this trick in detail. Why? Why?? None of it was funny, at least not the way she wrote it. I can't believe her BF is still with her after this. Or that he hasn't been arrested for her murder yet.

8. The three hours of my life spent reading this dribble. Time I will never get back.

The only saving grace for this book for me is that it was a digital loan through my library, so no money was spent reading this trash.

My one star rating is generous. EXTREMELY.(less)

I write this review having enjoyed her other books, that were, you know, funny and outrageous stories, so my issue isn't really her subject matter.

The book dies for me in the middle somewhere, when Chelsea tells a rather sleazy story about trying to get her chauffeur some action on vacation, and it turns into a drunken spectacle with some insane woman calling Chelsea a bitch and pushing her around a little.

Chelsea Handler is a nut, no doubt about it. If you didn't gather that from her two previous humorous memoir/ essay collections, you'll definitely know it after reading her latest book release, Chelsea Chelsea Bang Bang. The title reminds me, of course, of the 1968 Roald Dahl film Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, but the titles are where the similarities begin and end, except for perhaps the ludicracy (word, or not a word?) involved in both.

I have a comedy threshold, apparently, where if it gets too dirty, I just don't think it's funny anymore. Most of Chelsea Handler's brand of humor falls into the "too dirty" category for me.

However, Handler's third effort, "Chelsea Chelsea Bang Bang" falls short, especially in compared to the laugh out loud until you cried stories of her previous two books.

I don't know if the lack of hilarity is due to a rush on the author's part to get the book to print or if she is slacking because she knows she has a solid fan base. I certainly hope...more

In July 2007, Chelsea broke into the world of late-night talk shows with her E! Entertainment series, “Chelsea Lately,” airing weeknights at 11:00 p.m. Consistently the network’s highest-rated program, “Chelsea Lately” offers a tongue-in-cheek look at entertainment news, celebrity truths and rumors that just won't die, along with other hot topics of the day. Bringing refreshing new energy to and redefining perceptions of the talk show, “Chelsea Lately” is an authentic and hilarious commentary on the celebrity culture around us. Both Handler and the show have also been recognized as pioneers in late night with the show boasting five female writers to account for half of its writing staff. This is unprecedented in the late night arena that has historically been dominated by male hosts and writers.

In addition to her wildly successful television series, Chelsea is equally well-known as a best-selling author. On March 28, 2010, she achieved a spectacular feat when her three books took the #1, #2, and #3 spots on the New York Times Best Seller list. Chelsea Chelsea Bang Bang, from Grand Central Publishing, was the #1 nonfiction hardcover; Are You There, Vodka? It’s Me, Chelsea, from Simon Spotlight Entertainment, was the #2 nonfiction paperback; and My Horizontal Life, from Bloomsbury, was the #3 nonfiction paperback. In hardcover, Are You There, Vodka? It’s Me, Chelsea debuted at #1 on the New York Times Best Seller list when it was published in April 2008; and My Horizontal Life has been a bestseller for 80 weeks.

As a testament to her versatility and tireless work ethic, Chelsea’s 21-city comedy tour, also entitled “Chelsea Chelsea Bang Bang” and sponsored by Belvedere Vodka, kicked off in March 2010. After tickets sold out immediately, Live Nation added 15 more shows. As one of the nation’s most acclaimed and cutting edge-comedians, Handler delivers a sharp combination of fearless honesty, ironic riffs and self-deprecations with no shortage of material.

With her roots in both stand-up comedy and television, Chelsea was also the star of Oxygen’s “Girls Behaving Badly” (now syndicated in over 90 markets ) for all of its four seasons. She also starred on E! in “The Chelsea Handler Show.” In 2007 – 2008, Chelsea starred with Jenny McCarthy and Leah Remini in the hugely popular MSN online web series “In The Motherhood.”

In March 2009, Chelsea was honored the prestigious Ally for Equality Award by the Human Rights Campaign, recognizing the outstanding efforts of those who dedicate time, energy, spirit and whole-hearted commitment to better the lives of LGBT people. She continues to be an influential and dedicated advocate for the LGBT community.

Handler, who grew up in New Jersey, currently resides in Los Angeles.(less)
